This place is great! I got my brakes fixed on my car for a very good price. They are honest and are…read moreaffordable. My folks use them and even my brother when he came up to visit. Seems like this guy has taken care of everyone in my family. Honest. Dependable. Trustworthy. I think that says a lot for a mechanic. Rick's is located on Bud McKinley Rd, a street right next to the Balboa Gate entrance to Hot Springs Village on Hwy 5. A little of the beaten path, but are not all the good places found off the beaten path??!!!?!?!

I started initially giving him a 4-star rating but after reading this you will see why I dropped…read morehim down to 3 stars. I feel this was generous. He had a fast reply after I inquired about a mobile mechanic here last Monday. Stayed in contact but was forgetful even with text messages. Flexible hours. I paid for my parts ahead of visit. That was my decision. He offered to pick one up. He was very quick replacing the alternator and knowledgeable. After replacing alternator we discovered that we needed a new battery. He offered to pick it up. I chose to buy the battery online and then had it brought to the car for us (I'm under doctors orders to not lift anything over 5 pounds or else I would have done the entire repair). We agreed that he would return to replace the battery for me. I texted him telling him we received the battery and we are ready for him when he's done with a quick fix on the next all. Well, he never showed up! There goes his Yelp rating and recommendation.

They did a great job replacing my headlights on my Prius. Very nice people. We will be back!read more

I had an issue with the A/C not cooling at all. I spoke with Jeremy, explained the problem and he promptly scheduled me in the following day at 9:00am. They performed a AC system service, checked for leaks and topped off the Freon (which was very low). Their charge for the service was very reasonable and I left a happy customer.

Needed a driver's side interior door handle on my SUV. I explained that I had the part already but…read moredidn't have tools back from storage yet. A-Team Mobile Mechanix responded quickly and was happy to do it. Price for their stated (see text) was very high and he brought the labor cost down a little bit. We discussed days and I told him several days but today, Wednesday March 27th was good too. This morning I received a text saying he could have someone here this evening around 6 and the price of labor is at $175/hour (still outrageous to me but I needed it done) + taxes. His mechanic was here at exactly 7 (which was fine) and had it installed within 20 minutes, using my provided part. First invoice I received was for a whopping $208.78 (included in it was $17.50 for parts that I provided!) I texted him back reminding him that I had provided the part and it needed to be removed from the invoice. He agreed to do that but he added it was for "supplies" like gloves (none were used by the way) and other things that normal businesses factor into their cost per hour (something he disputes). I received the adjusted invoice though for $189.88 . I want to add that they were very nice, helpful and quick to respond. But with all of this in mind I thought they are extremely expensive and need to adjust their business model to bake in their supply costs with their high cost per hour.
